Kiddie crack stash (1st-grader brings drugs to show-&-tell)
By WARREN WOODBERRY Jr.

DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITERS

A Long Island first-grader brought a show-and-tell item to class that sent shock waves through his school: eight small bags of crack cocaine, police said yesterday.
The teacher quickly confiscated the drugs and neither the 7-year-old boy nor his classmates at the Theodore Roosevelt School in Oyster Bay were hurt.

"The kid was not being malicious, trying to use it or sell it," said James Cammarata, an attorney for the Oyster Bay-East Norwich Central School District. "He voluntarily gave it up to a teacher."

Tests confirmed the bags contained crack.

Police did not identify the boy, who was showing off the drugs to his pals Thursday morning when he was caught. He was turned over to his relatives after he and they were questioned by authorities.

1. Wow, I'm glad nobody was hurt. I've seen crack leap out of the bag
and turn in to a fourteen foot tall spider that eats children.

"nobody was hurt" :eyes:
